Robert Foley Claret 96 Points & Clarendon Hills Grenache 95 Points

Hi Everyone:
Just got my hands on some amazing rare wines.  Supplies are very limited and will not last long.  Please contact me with questions and orders.

Robert Foley Claret 2008 Napa Valley Price $120.00 Discount Price $99.99 minimum 3 bottle purchase
96 points Robert Parker: "The 2008 Claret (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) has that ethereal nose of spring flowers, boysenberry, blueberry, black currant, and spice. Following that seductive aromatic display, Foley’s brilliance is again exhibited in the mouthfeel of this seamless wine, which has full-bodied flavors, no hard edges, gorgeous layers of fruit, and loads of complexity already, but is still a youthful wine with its best days ahead of it. This is brilliant winemaking, as some of us have come to expect from Bob Foley, and it should age well for 15-20 years. (Dec 2010)"

Clarendon Hills Romas Grenache 2005 Australia Price $85.00 Discount Price $69.99 minimum 3 bottle purchase only 4 six packs available very rare and hard to find
95 points Robert Parker, 94 Points Wine Spectator: "The 2005 Grenache Romas Vineyard delivers more complexity than the Onkaparinga, both aromatically and on the palate. An enticing perfume of damp earth, truffle, clove, black cherry, and blackberry is followed by a full-bodied, powerful, structured wine which will need a decade to reveal its full potential. Although it oozes with fruit and can be enjoyed now, it merits extended cellaring." (10/07) 94 points Wine Spectator: "Firm in texture, this is tremendously generous with its red cherry and lingonberry flavors. A bit tart, but so fleshy that it wins the day, picking up some welcome minerality as the finish goes on and on. Best from 2010 through 2017
